Hey everyone,

I was trying to figure this out and am at a loss, maybe someone knows how to do this, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Question:

How do you create a secure download page that will change dynamically over time?

For example: If someone were to put in their credit card info and then want to actually buy your product. Once the billing information is processed, then they would need to be directed to a page where they could download your product.

Basically, how can you direct them to a download page that will expire in 24 hours or so. I’m asking because if you direct them to just a static page that never expires, then that link could be accessed without actually buying the product, and it is a big potential security gap.

Hope that made sense.

Thanks!

I actually have a programmer friend looking into Google API to see how to do this, since I have a google shopping cart. maybe once he has it figured out he could help you?

Marcie!

Hey! :)

I just found 1shoppingcart.com

They have secure checkout and accept all major credit cards, they also have an auto responder for compiling and mailing people on your e-mail list.

And...

They support unlimited bandwidth for digital downloads, and have:

"Secure digital product/ebook delivery"
"Automatic download link expiration"
"Digital product/e-book licensing"

Kinda cool!

79 bucks a month though for the delivery options...

Anyone have any better options?

Thanks!
